Marsalforn

Marsalforn is the busiest tourist destination Gozo with plenty of bars, restaurants and accommodation options to chose from. Situated on the north coast, the resort has a great beach and is surrounded by lovely countryside. It is a great destination for families and couples and has not lost any of its authentic Maltese charm

Previously a small fishing village, the resort now has a lovely harbour with plenty of colourful boats bobbing up and down in the sunshine. The beach, Marsalforn Bay is mostly rocky, but there is a sandy area nearer the harbour. It is a great beach for children as the waters are safe for swimming. There are also some other great swimming spots along the coast.

There is a great promenade full of cafés that expands along to Qbajjar and Xwenjni. It is a lovely place to grab a coffee or a cold beer and watch the world go by.
